Me Amal Sebti, a lawyer specializing in tax and business law, had a remarkable career in the Canadian Armed Forces, where she served with distinction as a Master Corporal. Assigned to the 2nd Canadian Division Training Center in Quebec, she received two official recognitions her highlighting excellence and leadership in individual military training.
On August 15, 2018, she was awarded a commendation from the 2nd Division Commander for her outstanding contribution to leading a training section. As deputy commander, she demonstrated consistent rigor, impeccable professional ethics, and a rare ability to motivate trainees in a demanding physical, psychological, and organizational environment. Her involvement significantly enhanced the section’s overall performance, and her proactive attitude was recognized as a model of operational leadership. In a military environment where adaptability and consistency are paramount, she maintained exemplary team cohesion while ensuring strict adherence to training standards.
A year later, on August 15, 2019, she was presented with the certificate for the best instructor for her overall work at the 2nd Canadian Division Training Centre. This recognition, awarded following a rigorous evaluation process by the chain of command, underscores the excellence of her teaching, her positive leadership, and her commitment to the continuous improvement of the instructor profession. She successfully instilled the core values of the Canadian Armed Forces—honor, duty, and integrity—while fostering an environment conducive to trainee success. She fully embodied the military principle that personal example precedes command.
This military experience, rooted in discipline, structure, and performance, forms a cornerstone of Me Sebti’s professional journey. She states that her time in the Canadian Forces enriched her legal practice, particularly in terms of strategy, procedural rigor, and crisis management. Today, as an active member of the Quebec and Ontario Bar, she applies these skills in the fields of tax law, business law, and civil litigation, with the same determination to serve with competence and integrity.
